I’m interested in purchasing some M1 meth from VP and found this on there website.. New M3
Anybody have any info on it??

METHANOL

M1™
M1 Racing Methanol has a 99.95% minimum purity - the highest purity available in the U.S. With M1, engines run cooler and are less subject to corrosion. VP uses only lined drums which prohibit rust, corrosion and metal deposits that can contaminate fuel delivery systems. Recommended for all methanol-legal racing applications.

NEW! M3™
Like M1, M3 Racing Methanol has the highest purity available, but with an extra boost. With special additives, M3 offers a wider range of jetting options, making jetting easier and more consistent. With better tuning and cleaner, more efficient combustion, M3 makes more power than any standard methanol on the market and passes water test as well.

M3 grade sounds like the HPLC grade methanol i use for cleaning precision optics

$60/gal

seriously, you are not drinking this stuff, whether its 98 or 99.95, the engine wont know and neither will it make a diff! The surface tension of methanol is in the range of ~20dynes/cm and thats low, enough to produce real fine mist

i'd like to see the differences in prices between the two. if it was minimal, i'd go with the m3 based on the fact that it is supposed to be cleaner. cleaner would logically seem to help prevent any clogging, etc. that might make a kit fail.

Maybe M5 is ultra pure, spiked with nitromethane and it safe to drink? $200/5gal

funny you should mention that i have a gallon or so of model airplane fuel that is like 15% nitromethane the rest is a mixure of meth and some type of lubricant.

I mixed mi m1 with water and it gives me very good results exhaust temps are lower now...

M3 has top end lube (oils) and M5 sounds like it has a nitro additive. Either will not be kind to pump diaphragms or seals or any other seals in your system. I've seen pumps die quite quickly when impurities are introduced into the system.

is meth safer then nitrous?

50% M1 + 50% water = good results. Anything else higher than 50% methanol will break the seals slowly.
